Not voting either way, while hiking in Alaska i was set up on and mauled by a bear, despite repeatedly blowing this whistle it did not deter the bear nor did it summon any help for my rescue. Not voting cold because this is a 'survival' whistle and technically i survived but at the same time lets just say i'm typing this review from chopsticks in my mouth.

Do yourself a favour, buy bear mace instead!

I quite literally could not survive without this whistle.

I wonder if it summons unicorns (going by the colour)?

I assume "gocomma" is a Gearbest brand, seen it stamped on a few random items on there

I've never been without mine and never been attacked by a Mountain Lion!

How far can this spray go if bears charging at you? Just curious, don't think I'll have courage to spray anything at huge animal like a bear.

In freezing weather, a metal whistle can freeze to your lips. Better off with a plastic whistle.

And a plastic whistle's lighter if you're a lugging a heavy pack up a mountain. Every little bit helps!
